Default sams club car wash destroys my car
Went through the car wash at Sam's Club, here are the results. The bearing on the washer broke while it was washing my car

Yeah, I guess not. We will see how much it cost to fix this it even scratched my bumper and then when the guy was taking the machine apart to get my car out he dropped a huge bolt on the roof and put a chip in that.

worse part of all this is it takes 4 months to get a sticker to cross the express line on the border (I work in Mexico) and I will need a new sticker because I need a new windshield. 4 months that is how inefficient our govt is. On the Mexican side ( I have a USA sticker and a Mexican sticker) I can get it in one day

Dude that suck, sorry to hear that. This is exactly why I always hand detail my car myself. You can never trust people or machines to baby your car like yourself unless that's what their reputation is built on.
